Year Opened2020
Storico sentiero che anni fa portava all'area dirt del Cretaceo, dove si allenavano Jack Bisi e amici dopo l'era del Jurassico. Da anni i salti e il forno in argilla sono stati abbandonati e, quindi, si intravedono solo più le forme. In compenso, il trail è stato rimesso a lucido recentemente ed è uno dei più divertenti della zona. Veloce e flow, in terra battuta, con molte serpentine, un paio di drop, qualche bel cambio di pendenza e una sponda sul muschio.
Access Info
Dal sentiero 2 (GTC), arrivando da Pra Palet si imbocca sulla sinistra, poco dopo l'attraversamento del Rio Alberoni.

Sickest track on the hill. Huge thanks to the Old Schoolers who brought this iconic spot back to light.
